Not to mention Lipton Ice Tea is rubbish. You can make your own for 1/10th of the price, and it'll taste 10x better.

    What are you making your tea out of if it costs €0.50? Gold or something?

    My favorite part about purchasing iced tea in the store is that you will have 2 bottles sitting right next to each other. One will contain a product that costs far more and both will cost the same price. The main cost of sweet tea is sugar. No sugar in unsweet tea, just water and tea leaves...

    Your not paying for the contents anymore. It's shipping, packaging, advertising and CEO's expenses your paying for.

    I've cut so many products out of my life in the past few years. They used Covid as an excuse to price gauge and they just never stopped. They'll keep creeping the price up until sales start to decline then they'll settle there... for awhile.

    Just so you know - Carrefour is one of the biggest retailers in Europe, they're French, and have said a giant "Va te faire foutre" to PepsiCo this week -

    I've seen cheaper drinks at ski field cafes... It makes sense for them to be pricey there, since they have to bring it up a mountain, but what's this places excuse...?

    Gom Syrup 50/50 mix sugar (caster is easiest) or honey (don't hate me France) & boiling water Black tea 2 grams per 8oz water at 70c increase tea a little more if adding ice right away Fruit juice or purée to taste or go Eurobeat and not bother

    Put in a reusable container, stop supporting nonsense things you can do yourself

    Is it me, or are those only about half full? I can't tell if the label is transparent or opaque. 😳

    On a trip in Nola and took the kids for a treat at the Cheesecake Factory. 3 sodas and an iced tea was $21. Won't be back for that reason alone. We are being fleeced.

    The price is insane, is this store on top of a volcano and goods need to be transported via helicopter?

    Is that a hospital vending machine? I spent £15 once and got 2 packs of crisps, chocolate bar and drink.

    1.25L for €4.95? Wow... $5.41 US. 42.268 fluid ounces, so $0.128 per ounce? Yeesh!

    Here you can get a 12 pack of 16 ounce bottles for just under $7. $0.033 per ounce.

    Looks like the price says 1.25L. Even in the US, that’s more than one drink

    Make your own. Only takes a minute and once you find the right formula, will taste much better than this garbage.
